@Bu20055 Thank you!

I wouldn’t worry. Some buns are very shy when introduced to new places, there are new sites, new smells, everything is foreign to them. He will come out of hiding, in his own time, so I wouldn’t force him out or anything. 🙂

Hopefully, he comes out of shyness and nervousness soon! All good and happy bonds do take time. 🙂

Sounds good. 🙂 Although, with the way things are sounding, it sounds as though you might have to, for an actual scream, that is something new to me. But, definitely avoid it as much as possible. It is good how you are being prepared and ready with a plan. Shows a sign of a good bun parent. 😉

I LOVE those names! 🙂 Muffin for the would-be cute, you could call him Muffy for short 😉

My parents have told me they aren’t going to agree to the surgery. It’s not because of the money, but because our lifestyle as a family does not align with the type of care Hunny would need post-operation (anesthesia and teeth filings every 6-12 weeks). I am trying to get my own place in the next couple years, and so is my sister. My mother is a…[Read more]

Since they aren’t fighting should I just take it a couple steps back and put them in a neutral area again? They are doing fine I feel like they just haven’t worked out their hierarchy yet because Calliope still isn’t excited about grooming Theo and because of that he doesn’t really groom either which I think is their main problem. Maybe I just…[Read more]

Should be fine. I have a friend who does that with her buns because she finds it easier.

@ThorBunny Thanks for the info! 🙂 Yeah they just got neutered last week and I’ll be attempting to bond them eventually when their hormones are cooled down. Hopefully it will be less smelly within the next few weeks. Thanks!

I think since your rabbits are unbounded and just neutered, you will be having more stinky pee and poops than in the future. When I tried to bond Thor, there was a definite uptick in number of smelly poops left around, even with all bunnies being spayed/neutered.

I spot clean the litter box once a day, since Thor only ever uses one or two…[Read more]

Thanks alot to everyone!

I will try to cover the area with different things and let’s see how it goes. If I find anything that stops his obsession I will add he info here in case it helps someone else too

@Bu2005 Thank you!

@DanaNM Thanks! 🙂 Yeah it is really cute lol. I’ve been doing pellets once a day in the morning. Is it fine if I give the pellets with all the veggies for the day in the morning?

I think that sounds like a good idea, potentially an x-pen in the corner of the living room where she has her litter box, water bowl, etc. I do think most bunnies like having their own space, even after spaying.

Bunnies can get obsessed about digging in specific spots. On the floor, usually putting a heavy ceramic tile is enough to get them to give up (or at least protect that spot). Maybe you could try that on the bed corner?

Other than that, probably easiest to keep him off the bed unfortunately.

Hi bam. Thank you for the reply, I’ve increased the dose of meloxicam to 0.6ml which would be close to 1mg which should be good I hope. The antibiotic has been on for 2 days now but no change in behaviour and no attempts to eat at all. I don’t know what I should be doing now, and how do I even know she’s getting better?

Either is fine, it’s basically your preference. I do twice a day because they just get so dang excited about it. 🙂

I only do pellets once a day though.

@Wick has some really good tips on giving medication (or syringe feeding), they describe it pretty well in this thread: https://binkybunny.com/forums/topic/how-to-syringe-feed-healthyish-bunae/

The “C-grip” is the important part. I usually like to give meds with the bun on my lap or on a towel on a table. Have the bun facing away from you, so…[Read more]
